1952S- MS65
1938S- MS66

 

I guess I am going to have to try from my laptop. Those pix look like someone has sandblasted them, so my guesses could be interesting

PCGS - 1932S = 45
NGC - 1946D = 63
PCGS - 1938S = 65
SEGS - 1952S = 64

 

bump:

1932- ef45
1946- ms63
1952- ms63
1938- ms65

 

..Round 9 recap:

Tough pictures... but still some strong results, good strong participation and competition !

Same thing appears to be happening as in the last exercise,,, I see a trend in the results each week.

PCGS grades:
1932S - AU53 > Nice coin, some luster left,, a bit of wear.
NGC grades:
1946D - MS65 > Don't know if I'd have graded it this high... maybe 64
SEGS grades:
1952S - MS64 > nice coin for the grade imo.
PCGS grades:
1938S - MS66 > ... and another dripping white merc.

Observations: I know the pics were not the best in this round.... but on the upside, I think these were the worst pics I could throw at you... and still ya'll did very well.

Raider continues to extend his lead....

Awards for this set of coins:
Best - Raider / Leadfoot - .50
HA - Swish - 1.50
Others:
Ldhair - 1.25
Badthad - 1.25
Bigjpst - 1.25
Mark_H - .75
Duke - .75
Lehigh - .75
RLM's - 1.25

On to round 10,,,

 

Raider is killing me!!

 

That's more like it!

(Sorry Duke)

 

Darn it - my problem is I did not pay attention to who graded the coins or I would have bumped that one a grade.

 

Don't be
It's just a fun little contest. But this 2nd all the time after leading most of the rounds is getting old

 

It's gonna really hurt when you drop to 3rd. hya:
